Neck Hair Transplant for Refined Hair Line

I read that some clinic’s use hair from the nap of the neck to help create a more natural hairline. Is this a technique that you practice or something you think is not necessary?

A:

The neck hair is not permanent in many people. This means it too can be susceptible to the adverse effects of DHT as a person goes through the process of balding by aging.

We do not use neck hair nor do we recommend it for hair transplants. If hair transplantation is done with the right design and standard techniques, it should not be detectable any way. It is not necessary to take hair from the areas with thinner hair to achieve a natural looking hairline.
